Xu Ning woke up because of the shaking, not because the whole journey was bumpy, but because of a sudden bump.
Since the carriage was on the road, the smooth ride made Xu Ning sleep more soundly, but a big bump woke her up.
It was only when Xu Ning woke up that he realized they had already walked onto the main road.
"Sister Pei, why are you taking the main road?" Xu Ning lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw Pei Jiao riding slowly beside her carriage.
Along the way, Xu Ning used the navigation to take small paths with few people. He had only seen such a wide road when he set out from Xianyu Village.
"The Taoist priest said that there are more people on the small roads than on the main roads." Pei Jiao glanced at the carriage behind her on horseback. Xu Ning looked at the main road where there were obviously not many people, and then called for the treasure chest in his mind.
"Bao, what happened on this road? Why are there so few people?"
"This section of the road was raided by bandits yesterday." Baibaoxiang told Xu Ning. Xu Ning took a closer look and found that there were indeed a lot of dried brown bloodstains left on the road.
As for the corpses, they were probably eaten by wild animals or... became other food.
"Bao, take a look around to see if those bandits still have spies."
By scanning the treasure chest, Xu Ning's team was safe until night.
Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief, and only then realized that he was hungry.
"Sister Pei, is there anything to eat?" With outsiders present, Xu Ning couldn't just take food out of the box.
Yesterday's sonar was small in size, so it didn't look out of place when it was taken out of Xu Feng's box. But if Xu Ning could produce food out of thin air now, it would be very scary.
"Yes! I knew you would be hungry when you woke up, so I kept it warm for you along the way!" There was a small portable stove in the carriage. Xu Ning took up space because she was sleeping on her stomach, so the small stove was burning in Pei Chen's carriage.
Pei Jiao turned her horse around and quickly took the radish cake from Pei Chen's carriage.
"Ningning, take it." Pei Jiao leaned sideways and reached her hand through the curtain of the carriage. Before Xu Ning took it in his hand, he smelled the fragrant aroma of lard.
"Wow, it's radish cake fried in lard! So fragrant and delicious!" Xu Ning didn't feel greasy at all. He quickly rinsed his mouth and finished it in a few bites.
The temperature during the day is not hot now. Except for occasionally meeting physiological needs, the team basically does not rest. Only when it is almost dark will the team officially stop to reorganize. Therefore, if they are hungry at noon, they will just eat some dry food.
"Radish paste is indeed the most delicious!" Xu Ning wiped his mouth, felt his fullness, and felt that he could still eat a little more, so he grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the drawer of the carriage.
Xu Ning first gave a handful of melon seeds to Xu Feng, who was staying quietly, and then handed a handful to Pei Jiao. After Pei Jiao took it, she leisurely leaned against the car window, looking at the scenery, eating melon seeds and chatting with Pei Jiao.
"Sister Pei, according to your calculations, how long will it take us to reach North City?" They had been on the road for more than ten days, and Old Lady Xu asked them where they were at least twice a day.
"If everything goes well, it will be around half a month." The speed along the way is not difficult. If the rest of the journey goes as smoothly as the beginning, we can get there in half a month.
Of course, the incident of rats eating the grain yesterday did not happen, otherwise even if we arrived safely, there would be no grain to sell.
"Well... half a month." Xu Ning cracked melon seeds and stared at the sky with his head tilted in a daze.
